Place a skillet on the stove and turn the heat to medium-high. Add olive oil and allow it to become hot.
Add the ground beef, then cook for a few minutes until crumbly and brown.
Add the garlic, onion, and peppers. Sauté for a few minutes until aromatic and soft. Season with salt, pepper, dry mustard, and chili powder to taste.
Add the tomato paste and rice, then stir and cook for about 3 minutes.
